You really need to take time to listen to this.
Such blatant corruption.
Senator Chris Murphy took to the Senate floor on Friday to break down the corruption flowing from the WH. He connects the dots, and makes a clear argument regarding who what where and why Shitler and Muskrat are destroying our govt!! This needs to be shared far and wide!!

I believe Musk and DOGE disbanded 18F because we stood in the way of their "procurement capture" operation. We get the government *out* of wasteful contracts. Musk wants that money back for himself.

For science nerds out there.
Some good news re H5N1…

A single dose of broadly nAb protects macaques from H5N1 flu. All the pre-treated animals survived, incurring very limited signs of disease vs controls developed severe or fatal illness. Protection from severe disease would last wks.

Without the CFPB, giant financial institutions — like banks, mortgage lenders, credit card companies, and debt collection companies — will have an easier time picking your pocket.

It’s clear who Trump and Musk serve — and it’s not you.
